NFPA 2010 Scholarship Essay

Posted by Brian Craig
March 8, 2010
The NFPA (National Federal of Paralegal Assocations) offers two scholarships annually, sponsored by Thomson-Reuters, in the amounts of $3,000 and $2,000. The scholarships are available to students currently enrolled in a paralegal program.

The application forms will be available on or before March 15, 2010. 

 

The subject of this year’s essay is:

Pro bono providers, such as lawyers/bar associations in many states do not include paralegals and/or paralegal students in pro bono projects. Although these providers do solicit lawyers to participate, the request does not include non-lawyers. How would you encourage pro bono providers to utilize paralegals and paralegal students to assist in providing pro bono services to those in need?

Applicants are not required to be members of NFPA or its member organization, although membership is encouraged.
